Re: front hitch mount
If you build the hitch to fit pre-existing holes (bumper mount bolts etc.) there is no frame wrecking. Myself have never bought a pre-made hitch for anything I've owned. I build mine heavier than any on the market so I know they aren't going anywhere.
In fact I'm fixin to build one for my Jeep and do away with the regular hitch sticking out the back.

Re: front hitch mount
How tall you want the hitch to be? I just installed this yesterday:
